THAT'S WHAT MR.. BLAINE SAYS OF THR REPORT THAT
HE WAS GOING 10 CUT HIS TRIP sHoKr-HE Is IN
SPLENDID HEALTH.
Special Cable to the New York World
The representative or the World found Mr..
Blaine, yesterday, at Kilgarston at the Bridge of
Earn, just as he was starting OF with Mr.. Carne-
gle for another coachiag trip. Mr. Blaine was In
the truth OF the report concerning his cutting
short his visit. He said: at Is a stupid lie 1
came here TO remain until next year, and have not
changed my plans" He added generally that he
came 10 Europe Tor recreation and rest. He wanted
TO be out of the range OF all possible misrepre-
scntatiOn OF political character. But the people
who were opposed 10 him could not. evidently,
believe that even In the wids OF scotland he was
not studying every phase OF the American polti-
cal situation. The report that he was contem-
plating any early return To the United States for
political reasons was a lie as silly as IL was alb
surd.
During the last three weeks OF his visit Mr.
Blaine has spent the whole OF his time out or
doors. Since going 10 Scotland his long rides, In
stead OF fatigung him have improved his condi-
uOn wonderfully. When the World correspondent
saw him he was just starting out FOR another
three days coaching trip. 10 which he was looking
forward with as keen zest III he were starting
his first trip. Notwithstanding his continued pur-
suit OF this outdoor lie I'm all weathers except
sundays, Mr.. Blaine Is pursued from day u day by
telegraphic inquiries concerning his health, occa-
stoned by the cable reports sent out from Edin-
burgh by an American correspondent who has noe
been anywhere near Mr.. Blaine and who has not
seen him since the latter left Edinburgh.
senator and Mrs Hale, VINO were Mr.. Carnagie's
guests for a week have gone. Col. and Mrs. Jno
Hay and Mr.. Courtland Palmer and his family, OF
New York, with large number OF Scotch gentry,
have participated in Mr.. Carnagie's coaching par
ties. Mr.. Blaine came 90 visit Mr.. Carnagie upon
an engagement made before sailing from the
United States. He Is enjoying his visit here huge.

Buckncr's Majority Estimated at Over
2O.OOO-Rcpublican Gains ALI over the
State.
LOUISVILLE. KY, Aug. 4-There are no returns
In this morning in addition to those in the MORN
ing papers. A very fair idea OF the situation IS
contained In the estimate OF the C0urer.J Journal
which says:
"The additional returns this morning do not
give any indications OF ground swell. As far as
we can judge, the democratic losses are due TO
confidence and Indifference in our party aud un-
usually good organization on the part OF the re-
publicans. The republicans voted and the demo-
Gratis stayed at home. Our returns are from fifry-
Vote OF the State. The republican vote I'm the
counties reported is little 90 per cent OF the
total, and the democratic vote is little over -.
These fifty-SiX counties show loss from the
or gains and losses continues the same for the re-
naming 40 per cent the net democratic loss Will
be l., $50 leaving Buckner majority over Brad
ley OF 81 ,9S9. The republicans are claiming bet
ter things than this from the mountain counties
but some OF their best counties have re-
ported, while the counties In the West
their returns. There is nothing whatever
which indicates greater proportionae losses I'm the
other counties and with the Information obtain
able this morning, We do not doubt Buckner will
have 222, 600 more votes than Bradley. If the ma
jorfty Is not as large our pride demands the
democrats have only themselves TO blame"
The Commercial summary is: Seventy-eight
counties have reported so far, leaving IL TO re-
port. These figures are from the most reliable
dispatches, agreeing with the returns received at
both the republican and democratic headquarters.
SO far received Is 325. on the same ratio the net
republican gain OF the whole State viii be :,s 500.

Prepayment Of Interest.

SECRETARY FAIRCHILD SAYS THE PURPOSE Is TO GET
RID OF THE SURPLUS.
Secretary Fairchtld has issued circular an
nouncing that the interest due September 1 and
December I, 1887, on the ~ per cent bonds OF the
United States, october l, 1887, and January 1,
1888, on the per cent bonds and January 1, 1888,
on the bonds issued in aid of the Pacific railroads
will be prepaid on and after August 15. 1887. with
rebate at the rate OF per cent per annum on the
amounts prepaid. Proposals are asked for the
sale of Government bonds for the sinking fund.
Secretary Fairchild says the anticipation OF ILL
terest is for the purpose of getting rid OF the sur
plus. The latter operation, he said, is only what
any good business man would do to discount his
obligations. The anticipation OF interest is one OF
the two means given to the Secretary OF the Treas
ury for dispOstng Of the surplus funds and he re-
garded it as the cheapest and most advantageous.
The interest covered by the circular amounts to
S22 3l9 784 1t is Impossible just now to state the
exact amount OF the rebate. The s1nking-fund re-
quirementS VIII amount TO about $26, ,OOO, 900 In
addition to the $50 600 600 Of per cent bonds al!
ready applied The surplus, said Mr.. Fairchild,
can be put out only through the cooperation OF
the oondholders, and II they DO not accept the
terms OF the proposition made to them 1t would
seem that they are not very great need OF money
